Happy New Year, everybody! Sadly, it looks like us here at TFB will have to start said year off with a story about a denial of Second Amendment rights. Well, digital Second Amendment rights, anyway. It looks like M$ is withholding any additional sales of Firearms-like items for your XBL Avatar starting this year. This news comes directly from Epic Games Community Manager Will Kinsler. Since Epic is known for their games involving tons of bullet-shooting, rocket-launching, acidic-goo-spewing weaponry, there’s little reason to doubt Mr. Kinsler’s word, even without an official confirmation from M$ themselves. Luckily, if you’ve already bought one of the targeted Avatar items, you’re grandfathered in, so wield those Lancers and Hammerbursts with pride!

Thanks to a reader for the tip!
